Current streaks

Recent form

Burnley

Burnley have showcased impressive form in their recent fixtures, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches with three wins and three draws. The Clarets are currently enjoying a remarkable 11-game undefeated streak, demonstrating their resilience and consistency in the Championship. Their defensive prowess is particularly noteworthy, having conceded only three goals in the last six games and keeping three clean sheets. While their attacking output has been modest, averaging 1.17 goals per game, Burnley have managed to secure vital points, especially in their recent run of three consecutive victories against Sheffield United, Watford, and Norwich. The team's ability to grind out results is evident in the fact that 67% of their recent matches have seen under 2.5 goals, highlighting their solid defensive organisation and game management skills.

Stoke City

Stoke City's recent form has been concerning, with the Potters struggling to find consistency in the Championship. They have managed just one win in their last six matches, which came in their most recent outing against Sunderland. Prior to that victory, Stoke endured a worrying run of four consecutive defeats, highlighting their defensive frailties as they conceded ten goals during this six-game stretch. The team's goal-scoring record has also been underwhelming, averaging less than a goal per game in their last six matches. Despite keeping a clean sheet in their latest win, Stoke's defensive record remains a concern, with an average of 1.67 goals conceded per game. The Potters' 18th position in the league table reflects their inconsistent performances, and they will be keen to build on their recent victory to climb away from the relegation zone.

Recent home/away form

Burnley

Burnley have shown impressive form at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches at Turf Moor. The Clarets have displayed a solid defensive record, conceding just two goals in this period and keeping four clean sheets. Their attack has been consistent, if not prolific, scoring in four out of the six games. Notably, Burnley have been involved in low-scoring affairs, with five of the six matches featuring fewer than 2.5 goals. The team's recent home record includes three wins and three draws, demonstrating their ability to avoid defeat on their own turf. While there are no particularly high-scoring games in this run, Burnley's 2-0 victory over Coventry City stands out as their most comfortable win. This strong home form has undoubtedly contributed to their current third-place position in the Championship.

Stoke City

Stoke City's recent away form has been concerning, with the Potters currently on a three-match losing streak on the road in the Championship. Their last six away games have seen them struggle, winning just once against Blackburn Rovers. The team's defensive frailties are evident, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per game and keeping only one clean sheet in this period. Despite their attacking output of 1.17 goals per game, Stoke have been unable to outscore their opponents consistently. The high-scoring 3-2 defeat to Southampton in the League Cup stands out, contributing to the fact that both teams have scored in 67% of these matches. With an 18th position in the league and a negative goal difference, Stoke City's away performances are a key area for improvement if they hope to climb the Championship table.
